Foreword A city strong we claim as ours A heart of love the Lord displays A man to Christ committed As one in Christ the Lord Behold, the kingdom is the Lord's Child of Mary, softly sleeping Christ bids us break the bread Christ is the shining sun of all our days Come, rejoice with all things living Draw near with God, he is not far to seek Draw near to God in humble adoration Fathers and mothers, sisters and brothers Freed in Christ from death and sin From the deep places, hear my cry God who formed the mighty ocean In Christ is all I need Jesus, the saving Name Jesus the Son Last of the great prophetic line Let this prayer, O Lord, be granted Lift high your hearts in blessing Light on the path, a lamp about our way Light to the world, a child is born O cross, between whose branches bare O God of heaven, from whose hand O God, whose angels see your face Our God and Father, whose eternal mind 'Peace be to you,' was Jesus' word Rejoice in God, my heart Songs in the night, at Jesus' birth The Lord is king, enthroned in might To God, our God, the nation's Lord Whom God has summoned by his word Whose is the voice which makes the winds to blow? Whose mighty word the heavens made?
